Public Address
If the PA (Public Address) output on the back panel of the US-2002 is connected to a public address system., you can talk on
the public address system.
To use the PA system, do the following:
1. If you are using manual microphone activation, verify the proper microphone switch is turned on (either headset or
panel mic).
2. Press and hold the PA key while talking.
3. Release the key when finished.
NOTE: To insure that the PA key is never accidently left in the on position, it does not have latching operation.
Turning the Program Inputs on and off
To turn the program inputs on and off, do the following:
1. Verify the program inputs have been connected at the back panel.
2. Verify the program sources are on.
3. Press and hold the Mic Kill key for two (2) seconds, then release it.
The Mic Kill indicator glows green to indicate the US-2002 is in programming mode.
4. Tap either talk key to turn the program input for that channel on or off.
NOTE: The current status of the program inputs is indicated by the talk keys. If the channel 1 talk key is lit, the
program 1 input is currently activated to channel 1; if channel 2 talk is lit, program 2 is activated to channel
2.
5. When the program inputs are configured as desired, tap the Mic Kill key to exit programming mode and return to
normal operation.
6. Adjust program 1 and 2 levels via the trimmers on the back panel of the US-2002.
Using Mic Kill
If the Mic Kill feature has been enabled (“Mic Kill Send Enable DIP Switch” on page 9) you can use it to deactivate all talk
keys on a single channel or on all channels. This feature is useful when a remote talk key has been left on and is causing
unwanted noise on a channel.
To use Mic Kill, do the following:
1. Tap the Mic Kill key.
It flashes green.
2. Tap the Talk or Listen key for a channel to turn off all talk keys on that channel.
OR
Tap the All Talk key to turn off all talk keys.
The key you tap turns green and the Mic Kill signal is sent.
3. Tap Mic Kill to exit.
